Sometimes when I’m surrounded by too many hot people the theme song to ‘Two and a Half Men’ plays in my head at max volume.

They arrive, carrying the weight of love that has already been spent, from rooms where it once burned and then went cold. The silence bends to hold them, soft enough to cradle the ache, bright enough to bring warmth, even if it cannot last. Then they rise, lighter than before, leaving only the waterline that traces the height where their love once reached. It remains, quiet, hollow, a refuge that no one claims, a shore pressed by tides that come and go until one day, the water forgets its way back.

3,2,1. This question is for people who are in long-term relationships, what were the clear signs you knew you and your love would last. Not just through months, but general time as you went forward. Asking for advice because I keep getting mixed up with guys in hookup culture, who tend to not read either my forward language or indirect when trying to inform. Or they just completely move to fast, to where I can barely communicate before they get to close.

I am just convinced many of these highly rated albums on RYM and AOTY are overrated af. Also, have you noticed most of them are made by men? I think I’m seeing a pattern

Who here can relate. On dating apps I feel like people assume more about me, before they actually like me and match with me to get to know me. I get this feeling more with Tinder, and if you read bios. Not all bios match the persons image their putting up through pictures. I notice this through seeing their socials come up on other apps and sometimes, rarer in person moments that aren’t often. Also the amount of times I’ve just said hi and am not even putting up a romantic front, and getting no reply at all based in conversation specifically. I see more judgements through the other person. How about you?

Still mastering the art of taking each day as it comes 😄 Anything anyone has done that has helped out with that? Suggestions welcome and much appreciated 🥰

Today a very wise Costa Rican man shared his wisdom with me: “Being with someone you think you can fix— someone who uses you as a distraction from doing their own innerwork and healing— is like carrying around a backpack full of someone else’s stones.” 🎒🪨 That hit me hard. Because that’s exactly how it’s felt. 😮‍💨

I never realized how often I take happiness for granted in the moment. Instead, I get caught up in my thoughts, grieving missed opportunities and bittersweet encounters. 🥀
